One month for me. Sent CS a message yesterday and they replied they know there‘s a problem and are looking into it.

Used all of my points for this redemption and have opted out of all MyPoints offers. A member for many (8) years and many points earned/redeemed. Redemption prospects have dwindled away, but the last straw was the rude CS response regarding no points posted for Marriott booking.

Waiting since July 7th here, still no United miles.

I wonder how the determine the 30 days--- when you submitted the receipt or when after the points went out of pending for the last offer?

Who knows whether they'll actually enforce that though.
I asked and was told it is 30 days from your receipt date. Do not know if it is enforced.

Just redeemed 12,000 points for 5,000 UA miles. Posted within 15 seconds! (as quickly as I could open my UA account). Amazing (wish I could get UA to credit me missing miles that quickly)!

Best Buy

I just discovered that you can double dip on the Best Buy 10 points for reading the circular. If you got the Bonus Mail, click through on that and then go to the MyPoints website and click through on the offer there for reading the circular, 20 points ^.

It says that United miles are posted immediately, however, it`s been over two weeks now and no miles. What`s up with that?

Did you request the miles before the recent change to immediate posting?

I just requested 5k UA miles today, and they did post immediately. Oddly, they are not listed under recent activity, but are reflected in my total miles, which correctly went up 5k. (Same thing happens with HH points and e-reward redemptions.)

I imagine they'll show up under recent activity at some point, but as long as the total miles are right, that's what matters. tls

Sent an e-mail yesterday about United miles orders from late June/early July. Got a CS response today that they're close to fixing the problem and the missing miles should post later on this week.

My United miles finally posted today. Check and see if y'all's did as well. In my United ledger, they're showing as being posted on my original redemption dates in June/July.

Yup, mine posted also. They have always backdated the posting date.

WalMart Suave deal

Anybody has done this?

Last time I tried for a WalMart deal (forgot what it was), I never received an acknowledgement email from MyPoints. Multiple follow ups did not get any response either. I was truly surprised but decided to just returned the products and forgot about the whole thing. That was like 9 months ago.

Have not done any purchase deal ever since including the Naked Juice that kept landing in my inbox.

However the Suave deal seems OK as it does not need to meet a spend threshold, right? All it needs is 2 bodywash, correct?

Have done it twice now and no problem with the points posting. Yes just buy 2 suave and submit your receipt.
